Problems solved by technology

However, one disadvantage of the impregnation method is that it may lead to a serious decrease in the porosity of the electrode, which in turn has a serious impact on the mass transfer of the electrode.
In addition, nanoelectrodes have a big disadvantage of low thermal stability
Nanoparticles are unstable substances with high

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of solid oxide fuel cells and particularly relates to a solid oxide fuel cell composite cathode and a preparation method thereof, wherein the solid oxide fuel cell composite cathode has a high electrochemistry performance and is stable in long-time operation. The preparation method includes the following steps of step one, preparing a three-dimensional porous skeleton made of electrolytic materials at a high temperature; step two, preparing a powder suspension or a nitrate solution of a cathode material; step three, impregnating the powder suspension or the nitrate solution into the porous skeleton and then calcinating the porous skeleton; step four, repeating the operation of the step 3 for a plurality of times until the impregnating quantity reaches the requirement; step five, performing high temperature sintering under an air atmosphere to obtain the three-dimensional composite cathode with a core-shell structure. According to the solid oxide fuel cell composite cathode and the preparation method thereof, the process is simple, expensive experiment apparatuses are not required, the obtained composite cathode is of the core-shell structure, a core is the electrolytic skeleton, a shell is a phase reaction layer with a stable nano thin film structure, and the problem that the performance is attenuated due to the fact that nano particles of the solid oxide fuel cell composite cathode prepared by an impregnating method are low in stability and easy to sinter is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of solid oxide fuel cells, in particular to a solid oxide fuel cell composite cathode with high electrochemical performance and stable long-term operation and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The classic solid oxide fuel cell cathode material is the oxide La with a perovskite crystal phase structure 0.8 Sr 0.2 MnO 3 (LSM), which has good electronic conductivity, a thermal expansion coefficient that matches traditional electrolytes, and high thermochemical stability, etc., is still widely used in high-temperature SOFCs. However, due to the pure electronic conductivity of LSM, the electrode reaction is confined to the LSM-electrolyte-air three-phase interface. At high temperature, the electrode reaction can maintain a fast rate, so the polarization resistance of the LSM electrode can be controlled within a reasonable range. However, as the temperature decreases, the activity of the electro...
